You still have to get the hydrogen somewhere, and 95% of it comes from fossil fuels. And the EV market has already been disrupted... by reality. Physics doesn't compromise.

Just to make myself clear .. I am not for a Hydrogen Motor ,, just sharing that is being built .. I feel one is driving a time bomb car with Hydrogen used for its power.. at least from what I know about it..

I wasn't aiming my comment at you. The whole hydrogen car idea is smoke and mirrors. "Look at my clean burning car. Don't look at where its fuel comes from." It's the same with EVs. With the exception of people who only charge their cars from their own solar cells, they can't operate without fossil fuels. And even those who claim they generate their own electricity owe the very existence of their solar cells to fossil fuels.
